Date/Time:25 Oct 2019 15:00Venue: S17 #05-11 SR5Speaker: Xiao Zhang, Guangxi UniversityBondi-Sachs Spacetimes and the Bondi EnergyBondi-Sachs spacetimes were originally introduced by Bondi for axi-symmetric spacetimes, and generalized by Sachs to general asymptotically flat spacetimes for the zero cosmological constant. In this framework, Bondi defined the Bondi energy-momentum at null infinity, which represents the rest energy of spacetimes after the loss due to gravitational radiation. In this talk, we shall discuss, for zero cosmological constant, whether the Bondi energy is nonnegative? How the Bondi energy-momentum relates to the ADM energy-momentum defined at spatial infinity? We shall also discuss the natural boundary condition and the peeling property when the cosmological constant is nonzero. The talk is based on some joint works with W-l. Huang, Yau and F. Xie.Add to calendar:
